Severe Hypernatremia Due to Postoperative Diabetic Ketoacidosis and Transient Central Diabetes Insipidus: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We report a case of acute severe hypernatremia secondary to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and transient central diabetes insipidus (CDI) in a postoperative patient. Diagnosis of DKA may be delayed in patients on sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, particularly in the postoperative state. Hypernatremia was refractory to medical management and corrected with slow low-efficiency dialysis (SLED) and desmopressin supplementation. This case highlights the importance of suspecting diabetes insipidus in refractory hypernatremia and demonstrates the role of SLED for controlled sodium correction in unstable patients.
